Chapter 197 The Essence of Crimson
The afterimage of the Platinum Dragon King has disappeared. Cyclonfas stands in the center of the altar, staring at the blood-colored mist that has regrouped. The Crimson Follower is immortal, and He knows this because the God of Sacrifice also has the same immortality.
The burning red mist gradually boils, and the sound of bubbling liquid appears in the mist. First the blood overflows, then the flesh and bones are reshaped, and finally the soul returns. The revival of the Crimson is the same.
Cyclonfas senses the reborn Follower, and they sense each other because of the connection that the God of Sacrifice designed before. The sacrificial ceremony stagnates because of the death of the sacrifice, but this link that has become a fixed concept has not been broken, and it binds John Kemp and Cyclonfas like a chain.
The ceremony can be restarted at the will of the God of Sacrifice.
Cyclonfas looks at the vague figure in the red mist and restarts the sacrificial ceremony. He maintained a compassionate look and said to John: "The fate is determined, John. Bahamut cannot help you escape this chain."
The God of Sacrifice raised his eyebrows, and the Crimson Follower slowly walked out of the fog. His figure was shrinking, and he changed from a tall monster back to John Kemp, a sorcerer.
The blood on the robe condensed to the extreme, and it was crimson.
John Kemp looked up at Cyclonfas floating in the air, smiled, and bowed.
"What? Are you going to surrender?" The God of Sacrifice was puzzled by the sorcerer's actions.
The sorcerer stood up, and the chains shot out from the surroundings blocked Cyclonfas's sneak attack. This insidious god actually took action while recruiting. However, John Kemp sneered, I am not much better.
"The appearance of the monster in the form of the Crimson Follower is based on my inner hatred and fear of Virtis and my fantasy of the Follower."
"And now..."
The sorcerer waved his arms, and the spears made of blood, the rapidly swinging chain blades, and the barren land covered with corruption, the power of Virtis was perfectly manifested in John Kemp. The Crimson Ring descended into the sky, and the door of the void blocked the bloody sun.
John Kemp completed his own advent ceremony.
"I am the most perfect form of the Crimson Follower. When I am promoted to God, this will also be the only image of Virtis's advent in the world."
Cyclonfas was surprised at John Kemp's arrogance, but what was even more surprising was that the Crimson power he possessed at this moment could actually compete with Him as the Crimson God, this mortal who squandered His divine power!
The sorcerer fought against the fierce attack of the God of Sacrifice while fighting against the erosion of the sacrificial ceremony on himself.
"Do you really think that I summoned Merlin and endured the torture of that knowledge just to commit suicide? Cyclonfas, when I saw your existence clearly, I really felt that you, who were subject to your own rules, were ridiculous to the extreme."
"Are you really not a clown god?"
[Outrageous! ]
Cyclonfas responded to the sorcerer's blasphemy with violent divine power. He used the power of the Creator that maintained this world to decompose the material that constructed the world into energy and crushed the sorcerer.
John borrowed the divine power that descended from the void to replenish his own losses, and at the same time revealed the truth recorded in the Book of Lies granted to him by Merlin.
"The construction of this kingdom of lies is based on a truth, Cyclonfas, you are that real existence."
In the turbulent years, the god of sacrifice Cyclonfas was killed by the Prince of Lies, which should have been the complete fall of Cyclonfas. However, this god who was subject to his own rules was also saved by his own rules.
Before the turmoil, mortals' disgust with the god of sacrifice made Cyclonfas paranoid and tyrannical. He did not let go of anyone who performed the sacrificial ritual. All believers who believed in him would perform a special sacrificial ritual at the end of their lives. Sacrifice yourself to Cyclonfas to ensure that the god of sacrifice possesses everything of yours.
The souls of believers and sacrifices became Cyclonfas' personal belongings. The Crimson God did not allow them to die, but that was not considered a normal life. They became part of the Crimson Power and part of God. A group of mortal spirits were infused with divine power and felt the pain that the sacrifices endured in the sacrificial rituals over a long period of time.
They went crazy, believers and sacrifices lost themselves, and became a group of divine power that constantly wailed and suffered.
There was nothing wrong with this originally. Cyclonfas's existence was enough to control his Crimson Power.
However, in the turbulent years, the punishment of the Supreme God separated the true God from his own divine power. Cyclonfas suffered an unprovoked disaster and was killed by the Prince of Lies, Cyric. And after that, the Supreme God set new rules in the world. The power of the gods comes from the faith of believers.
At the moment this law was implemented, the Crimson God's expanded divine power surpassed that of all true gods. Because Cyclonfas did not let go of any existence that believed in him, they used painful cries to maintain their faith in the god of sacrifice for eternity, and the long time reached an extremely terrifying base.
While the believers of other gods would convert and die, the belief in the Crimson God continued to expand, because they had become immortal divine power, with both thinking spirits and crazy natures.
A crazy corrupter was born from the void. He was a collection of crying and painful spirits. He was a divine existence that was obsessed with sacrifice and gave back power to anchor believers. He had a new name, Virtis.
The Crimson God Virtis is a divine power aggregate of the rules left by the God of Sacrifice, Cyclonephas. Because of the change in rules after the turbulent years, Virtis has the characteristics of immortality and powerful divine power.
With a crazy spirit, the ability to execute rules, and his own faith, Virtis has become a true god. In other words, a machine that performs sacrificial rituals according to the set program.
And this unprecedentedly powerful power is also fed back to the God of Sacrifice, Cyclonephas, who is regarded as a part of himself by Virtis. As we all know, the Crimson God will not let go.
The connection of the Crimson Power makes Cyclonephas immortal.
The Prince of Lies noticed the resurrection of Cyclonephas. The Crimson God Virtis has become a behemoth in the eyes of the true god. Xirik will not allow a guy who hates him to regain power, so he sealed Cyclonephas in a fragment of a country abandoned by him and threw it into the chaotic sea where few people go.
In the seal of the God of Sacrifice, Cyric cleverly used the rule that Cyclonfas would protect himself, and designed Cyclonfas to be the Creator in the land of Cameron. The Creator cannot destroy his own world because the rules set by Him do not allow it. However, Cyric did not expect that Virtis's corruption would manifest as a new divine power in Cyclonfas, the blasphemous divine power, and Cyclonfas used it to seduce the Queen of Cameron, and thus was about to break the seal.
Virtis was thus permanently separated from his main personality, and the instinct of chaotic spirituality longed for the Crimson God to continue to descend on the power to create individuals who could integrate all his madness and pain, that is, the Crimson Servant.
This is the truth recorded in the Book of Lies, the God of Sacrifice Cyclonfas is a fragment of the Crimson God.
The gods were afraid of the danger of Cyclonfas' blasphemous divine power, so they used believers to guide the Crimson Followers, Cyclonfas's substitutes, to the other world. And Cyclonfas also wanted to take advantage of this opportunity. After the rules were changed, Virtis became more powerful and became difficult for the God of Sacrifice to control. He needed the body of the Crimson Follower and used the connection between the Follower and the True God to regain his lost power, so as to avenge those former allies of the gods who ignored his suffering.
One is the predecessor of the Crimson God, and the other is the possibility of the Crimson God.
Both must destroy each other to ensure their own future.
